Very soon there will be some dead children the way these stupid psychopaths are going . Why are these guys not arrested? - sounds like 3 shots into a car with children.
in Aurora, a Chicago suburb, ICE agents surrounded the car of a U.S. citizen in a parking lot
fire into a vehicle's windshield with children in it, as she screamed that her children were inside.
Agents then dragged her from the car without presenting a warrant or probable cause.

(5,937 posts)I say go ahead and follow ICE's dear Fuhrer - er - leader's advice: "Please don't be too nice." Like when you guys put somebody in the car and you're protecting their head, you know, the way you put the hand over, like don't hit their head. And they've just killed somebody. Don't hit their head. I said, "You can take the hand away, okay?"

(4,422 posts)I don't see any good reason why EVERY ICE field agent should be armed---
especially with the way they are handling it---
ought to be limited to the most responsible member of any field team,
just for starters-- but maybe not even them!
Give them billy-clubs! They can still smash car windows with those!
but no, INSTEAD the admin is targeting ICE recruitment
towards "gun enthusiasts"--- who are anxious to use them!
(remember the question at some right-wing rally a while back,
'when do we get to start using the guns?' )

(763 posts)On Wednesday morning, Pineda, 33, said she dropped her three older children off at school and was checking for sightings of federal agents with her younger two children, 3 and 1. Later that morning, she said, she drove by El Paso Grande, a grocery store on the citys East Side, and heard whistles, a popular tactic used to alert an area of possible federal immigration enforcement activity.
Pineda pulled into the parking lot behind a car believed to be a federal agents, and was warned to get out of the way, she said. Soon after, her car was hit with pepper-spray projectiles, she said.
